when AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE is returned (as NFS does when it detects
congestion) it is important that the folio is redirtied.
nfs_writepage_locked() doesn't do this, so files can become corrupted as
writes can be lost.
Note that this is not needed in v6.8 as AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE cannot be
returned. It is needed for kernels v5.18..v6.7. Prior to 6.3 the patch
is different as it needs to mention "page", not "folio".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
